I have read many posts on this site....and must admit I am confused as to why there is no support for using the auto-set cpap versus straight cpap??
I have done both sleep tests with and w/o my cpap machine.....I have a data capable machine....at first I was put on auto-set, settling at 4.0 up to 12 over 45 mins....it took some while but, I adjusted to it...then I went in for my second sleep test with my machine....it was decided to put me on straight cpap up 10 with a chin strap....so again--it took me a while to readjust but, I did......then I had a follow up apt with my sleep doc with all my data on auto-set and straight cpap-- it was determined that I did much better on auto-set with less AHI-8.5 and on straight cpap at 15.9 so here I am once again in the transition stage of getting adjusted to auto-set.
I am confused why there is so much dislike here for the auto-set when some of us fair better on this as per recommended by my sleep doctor....I am struggling with the third adjustment but, I am not giving up (the settling on auto-set is 6.0 to 15) could someone let me know if this is a good setting this was just changed as per my supplier....could I be struggling with it because 6.0 is to high???
I would greatly appreciate any feedback on this!!!
